They say that ignorance is Bliss well are you happy?
ignoring the world's problems instead of you reacting
Who knows maybe you could solve them become that revolution
To bring your people out of poverty and destitution
Let's chill with all that shooting bro for real put down your gun
it's bad enough from police that a nigga gotta run
And speaking of these issues dog you would have thought you won
But you have solved all his problems and yours would have just begun
I'm smoking on some herb now I saw like Martin Luther in philosophies
But see my generation when I shoot
we are in a broken system and my brother that's a
Fact
But we're in a broken system Nigga make it work for you
They're jealous cuz we are black it's in our blood that we create
And so they glamorize are thugs sending messages of hate
No I ain't going to front like I ain't go through that phase
but if I would have died then yo what difference would it make
They see it and they take
And that's the way they made their culture
I blame it on their soldiers
I'm od'ing just a bit
But you know the shit I rap
Is part of your tactics
You try to deny it but homie that's just how it is
No funny that's legit
But we are taught to hate the devil
Instead I'll take a moment play The devil's advocate
No funny that's legit
But we are taught to hate the devil
Instead I'll take a moment play The devil's advocate

Got to fight to be recognized
As somebody with rights
It seems

What if we never left the Homeland
What would you need to survive
No plans for “ In a drought”
Don't be a slave to your mind
Then they could never touch us
They could never still our art
Never build a fucking prison
Tear my family apart
Being manly shit is hard
Tell our sons how
We show respect to the police and still get gunned down
Man these tired politicians give the run around
Keep telling my people how you care but yo it's funny how
On a different thought I
Found it amazing
President got his different resources
And time for tweeting
But still couldn't fix Michigan's water
But he got all this fucking money for putting a wall up
Just raising the border
I'm just calling out what I feel
So swallow it like a pill
Man we are celebrating the trap
Yo what happened to Lauryn Hill
We rapping about getting money
While young'uns are getting killed
And cops that are homicidal
Enduring it cuz I'm still
Dreaming just like I'm Martin
I'm fighting just like I'm Malcolm
Sit in my seat like I'm Rosa
Fight for freedom like a soldier
A brother born with a dream
So behold the fucking King
Can't except for how it is
Cuz mama taught me to think
And when you're ready
That this world will be yours
So hold steady
To the mic are y'all scream and applaud
I be bored with where I'm at
Voice feeling like it's nowhere on the map
watch the news I swear it feels like they ignore me cuz I'm black
Like I ain't got issues
Like damn my brother was killed
And y'all ain't bring tissues
But talk about we should recycle
Or how a gay couple shouldn't raise a zygote
it's your religion tell me where it says that in the Bible
The same spot that said Jesus was white?
Sir changed
do you know a European with that first name
Or am I thinking too hard
Being unique means just to be who you are
And fuck shooting for the Stars
I'm trying to reach another planet
Don't know how to do my taxes
But I know who Uncle Sam is
And I know I Sallie Mae
Sticks her greedy ass hands into my pocket
After every month cutting into my salary
What you want?
Because I'm still broke
Man I wish I was lying
Man I wish it was a joke
Wishing that I had a mansion
Going places on a boat
But you do run out of wishes
So you don't run out of Hope
